Somalia's Islamists and Ethiopian troops exchange mortar shells in Galkayo Aweys Osman Yusuf Mogadishu 28, Nov.06 ( Sh.M.Network) An exchange of mortar shells between Union of Islamic Courts and Ethiopian forces has occurred in Galkayo where both Islamists and Ethiopian forces are facing off. Mohomood Mohammed Jima'ale Agoweyne, an Islamist officer in Bandiradley in Galkayo, has told Shabelle Radio in Mogadishu by telephone that the exchange of mortar shells lasted in 30 minutes, alleging that Ethiopians started shelling at first. He denied any casualties of their side. Casualties of both sides cannot be verified. A contact made by Shabelle with administrators in Galkayo to verify the casualties has not succeeded. Ethiopian and Islamist forces in Galkayo, central Somalia, are less than 5 km away from one another. Witnesses have told Shabelle that fresh Ethiopian troops have made their way into Galkayo where the semiautonomous regional government of Puntland has positioned number of its troops backed by Ethiopians in the area to fight with Islamists. Some of the residents began fleeing, as they feared a war likely to explode in central provinces of Somalia.
